photo test

OK, so I'll upload the picture again here in this post, where it's never been, and see if it will enlarge now when I click on it. :-)

I've been playing with natural dyes and pigmenst, doing rubbings on trees and stamping with EZ Stamp that I've carved. This is a test to see if this image will enlarge on my blog site. My June bead posting is the next one down.

Great start...and using some of my favorites: nailheads and pearls!

TA DA, you got it, it worked.
Love what your doing here with your piece and the rubbing's.
I started stamping in October, to say I am getting addicted isn't even close. I am even working part time in my friends stamp store.
Whoa is me, I fear I will owe her money forever.

I'm glad you re-posted. I particularly like to zoom in and get a close up look at all the projects. This is a wonderful piece! It's a great idea to use those special treasures. You're right! The shell beads are especially luscious. I love the way you worked them in.

Ooooo, ooooooo, and more oooooo! Complex, feminine (but not saccarine), mysterious... Thanks for keeping at it until it was click-to-enlargeable... I loved seeing the details, the threads over the rings, etc. Your fabric is scrumptious too!

Beatiful! Love the free flowing lines in this and those lovely keishi pearls!

Hi, Vicki. I'm writing back about your Pat Allen comment. I studied her book with a group, took a workshop with her, did a lot of drawing for a year. Do you also do intentions and witnessing? I found those two aspects to be really profound. I forgot about the dialoging part, but that would be fun.

Very soft looking with the quilted in texture. I hope you really have fun using your special beads. It's so hard to do but just what are we saving them for really? Shell beads have a wonderful natural beauty to them. Can't wait to see what you do for July.

Mine worked fine so I think whatever you had to do you did just fine.

I heard you were down here for a class or opening. I get to go back to beading today and it is fun! Eyes are doing better.

Love your June page, the pearls, the nailheads - the overall happy feeling it gave me. I'm glad you figured out how to post larger pics - I really enjoy the details.
